I don’t get the whole 3D trend, maybe it’s because I can’t afford it huh?! Then again I never really did like wearing the red and blue glasses, they always seemed to give me a headache after wearing them. If you’re 3D ready though you can now convert your old home movies into 3D. Just imagine having your child’s first steps in 3D? Or those other ‘personal’ movies all re-done in 3D?! Imagine the possibilities!
Roxio Creator 2011 also supports emerging 3D formats, including those used in popular 3D theatrical film releases, as well as 3D-enabled capture devices, computers, HDTVs, and accessories. Consumers may import stereoscopic content directly from 3D cameras and other capture devices and then create personalized 3D productions complete with transitions, titles, effects, and a sound track that can be viewed on the PC, enjoyed on a 3D-enabled HDTV, or posted and shared via YouTube.
